WRONG....
In the past 6 months I have been traveling back and forth from Brazil. There is a brand of organic sugar I love and of course bring a few bags back for baking, coffee, etc.
I asked AA at GIG and GRU if it was ok to carry this on... the answer was yes. I have gone though customs and TSA with bags of this sugar at JFK, LAX, DFW, MIA... NO PROBLEM.
This sugar is crystallized so it looks like sea salt.
This sugar is far superior to any sugar I've had in the US, I'm very picky about what I put in my coffee.
